INTERVIU „Nu e vorba numai de bani”. Un reputat sociolog explică motivul-surpriză pentru care se întorc românii acasă. Din ce țări au revenit cei mai mulți în 2025

Sociologist Dumitru Sandu discusses the reasons behind Romanians returning home, emphasizing connectivity and infrastructure over mere financial incentives. Many returnees come from countries like the USA, Germany, and Canada, often seeking better living conditions in urban areas. Sandu highlights the importance of social networks in migration patterns and suggests that improving local infrastructure could encourage more Romanians to return. He notes that while economic factors play a role, opportunities for professional development are also significant. The trend of returning migrants is linked to urban areas with better resources, contrasting with rural regions that remain less attractive.
